Sachin Tendulkar en route to his 10th Test century in a match against England

Legendary Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar is often looked at as cricket's modern-day equivalent of Donald Bradman. There is hardly any major batting record in the game that Tendulkar does not hold and most of them are likely to stay with him for a long time. In a career which saw him play 200 Tests, the icon amassed almost 16,000 runs.

Sachin hit 51 out of his magical 100 international centuries in Test cricket, including a top score of 248 not out. On India's tour to England in 1996, the Mumbai-born cricketer made an addition to his tally of records when a 177 in the 3rd Test made him the youngest batsman to reach 10 centuries in Tests.

Sachin Tendulkar was aged 23 years and 71 days when he eclipsed the record that Bradman had held for nearly 65 years.
